With netstat if you see IP then usually its because of some form of a connection which has already been established... you can also checkup on some of the ports running on your box. So anyways ummmm you mean like commands kinda like telnet, ftp, & ect? For those just type telnet or ftp then it kinda just guides you through the rest.

Is it me or is this guy hitting up for a happy hacker tutorial? I mean look at the other threads so far...

Originally posted here by TheDreamer how many PCs still leave port 23/Telnet port open, isnt that kind of an old thing that has been blocked by everything? I know some places still use it but not all that common. Ive never heard of NMap?

Oh damn dude... A instant fear of firewalls, this clearly says you plan on connecting to things that aren't yours, correct?

Im not some skriptkiddie who defaces stuff just to do it, i actually do stuff just because i am a nerd and its something to do. i am not using trojans to do it, i want to do it using dos. I just wondered.

TheDreamer,
I am not going to be short with you here... I do not know a whole lot myself, but a great place to get started to learn the general way things work with security stuff, is to read up on it before posting on 20 different boards. Do not take this as a flame. But reading is your friend...a good book I have found for starting out, is a book by syngress called security+, which also happens to be a certification from CompTia. It wont give you the world, but it teaches you some of the basics.

Hope this helps.
